Parameter Comparison

Engineering Selection Recommendations

The MTQ-LVW3-B02.R2-SP is the direct equivalent substitute for the MTQ-LVW3-B02.R1-SP. Both components are obsolete products from the same manufacturer and series, with identical electrical and mechanical specifications across all critical parameters.

The R2 revision offers improved compliance documentation, with explicit ROHS3 compliance and REACH unaffected status confirmed. The R2 variant is packaged in trays, which may provide logistical advantages for production environments.

Selection between these two obsolete variants should be based on inventory availability and compliance documentation requirements for your specific application. Both parts maintain identical functional performance and interface compatibility.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Can MTQ-LVW3-B02.R2-SP directly replace MTQ-LVW3-B02.R1-SP in existing designs?

A: Yes. Both parts share identical electrical specifications, frequency bands, serial interfaces, power requirements, and mechanical mounting characteristics. No design modifications are required for substitution.

Q: What is the difference between the R1 and R2 revisions?

A: The R2 revision is a later production iteration of the same base product (MTQ-LVW3). Both revisions maintain identical functional and electrical parameters. The R2 variant includes documented ROHS3 compliance and REACH status information, and is supplied in tray packaging.

Q: Are there any compatibility concerns with the U.FL chassis mount antenna interface?

A: No. Both parts use identical U.FL chassis mount antenna connectivity. Any antenna compatible with the R1 variant will function identically with the R2 variant.

Q: What serial interfaces are supported by these modules?

A: Both modules support I2C, SPI, UART, and USB serial interfaces. All interface specifications are identical between the two variants.

Q: What is the power consumption difference between receiving and transmitting modes?

A: Both modules consume 37mA in receiving mode and 37mA in transmitting mode. There is no difference in current consumption between the two operational states.

Q: Are these modules suitable for outdoor applications?

A: Both modules operate across the temperature range -40°C to 85°C and have moisture sensitivity level 1 (unlimited), supporting deployment in controlled industrial and outdoor environments within specified temperature limits.
